Hi,
If someone makes you an offer, offers you something which is very good /which is very cheap, then the advice could be: 'Bite his hand off' which is an expression that means accept the offer very quickly, don't hesitate. In fact it suggests that you should not only accept what is offered but you should also bite his hand off so that he can't take the offer back.
Hope this makes sense. Obviously it is said in a humorous way because it is exaggerated.

Hello,
Is "bite his hand off" like "jump on it" as a meaning ?
Like; when we were told that the house is for sale, my father jumped on it. |
